LAKASA Biomatic Liquid Enzyme
LAKASA Biomatic Liquid Enzyme is a blend of highly specialized microorganisms (multiple strain) designed specifically to promote rapid degradation of excessive, difficult to digest organic waste. These organic wastes include grease, fats and oils (FOG), detergents, starches, protein, cellulose and hydrocarbons. With the introduction of LAKASA Biomatic Liquid Enzyme, FOG is converted into harmless compounds of CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water). It is an effective pre-treatment for organic waste to prevent it from passing over to the municipal wastewater system.
Characteristic of LAKASA Biomatic Enzyme Concentrate
LAKASA Biomatic Enzyme is designed for use to enhance the decomposition (degradation) of organic waste compounds in food processing wastewater treatment.
- Effectively and rapidly reduce/eliminate BOD and COD in wastewater.
- Decomposes and permanently converts organic wastes into water soluble compounds.
- Keeps drain lines flowing smoothly; reduces the amount of pumpouts.
- Non-corrosive: will not damage drain lines & grease interceptor
- Controls and reduces odors
- Contains no polluting phosphates
- Non-toxic, Non-pathogenic (non-disease causing)
- Environmentally safe & friendly
Biodegradation Process Summary
Why Biomatic Enzyme is NOT working in some cases
- Inadequate dosage.
- Inappropriate dosing time – the water temperature might be too high or the enzyme might have been flushed out before it has enough time to react.
- The grease content might be too high for biological process. In this case, manual cleaning is required once a month or more frequent if needed.
- Inadequate oxygen for microbe to perform, additional aeration might be required, especially for large interceptor.
- Wastewater might be too acidic or contains high chlorine mixture which can kill microbes.
Enzyme Dosage
(Actual dosage required might vary according to grease content)
Wastewater from main kitchen always contain high % of grease, whereas those from hand washing sink / basin and secondary centralized Grease Interceptor usually does not have much grease and oil.
During the first few weeks of dosing operation, regular inspection of the internal condition of the interceptor should be conducted to gauge the performance of the dosage. If a thickening of the contents is noted, with a distinct caking effect across the surface, or an offensive, pungent odour is emitted, then gradually increase the suggested dosage rate to compensate. If the contents appear to remain in a minimal semi-liquid state with little or no odour, this indicates successful degradation of the grease. Whenever tank is cleaned, the initial dosing procedure must be repeated.
Health & Safety
The Lakasa biomatic liquid enzyme concentrate is safe in normal use. The biologically active nature of the product may cause skin irritation in some cases. It is essential that rubber gloves are worn at all times.
Skin contact
Should the concentrate come in contact with skin, wash with plenty of clean water.
Eye contact
If the concentrate splashes into the eyes or is rubbed in by hand, flush eyes with plenty of clean running water.
Ingestion
Avoid ingesting the concentrate but should an accident occur, wash mouth thoroughly with water. Do not induce vomiting. Drink plenty of water or milk. Seek medical advice immediately after the initial treatment has been given.
